citizenship oath
A citizenship oath is a formal promise made by individuals who are becoming citizens of a country. In this oath, they pledge their allegiance and loyalty to the nation, commit to respecting its laws, values, and Constitution, and agree to support its way of life. The oath symbolizes their official commitment to become part of the country's society and to uphold its principles. It is a significant step in the naturalization process, marking their transition from residents or applicants to full citizens with rights and responsibilities.
